Abstract: | We study timelike surfaces in Anti de Sitter 3-space as an application of singularity theory. We define two mappings associated to a timelike surface which are called a Anti de Sitter nullcone Gauss image and a Anti de Sitter torus Gauss map. We also define a family of functions named the Anti de Sitter null height function on the timelike surface. We use this family of functions as a basic tool to investigate the geometric meanings of singularities of the Anti de Sitter nullcone Gauss image and the Anti de Sitter torus Gauss map. |
